About the map

Mongolia World Map
Mongolia on a World Map

Mongolia is a landlocked country located in Northern Asia and is the world’s 18th-largest in terms of area. It’s situated between China to the south and Russia to the north.

Most of the country is covered by steppe, with forests in the north and the Gobi Desert in the south. The Gobi is one of the world’s driest deserts, with annual precipitation of fewer than 50 millimeters (1 inch).

Mongolia is the least densely populated country in the world with just 5 people per square mile. Mongolia’s capital and largest city is Ulaanbaatar, also the world’s coldest capital. Other major cities are Erdenet, Darkhan, and Choibalsan.
